Abstract

Viewing device comprised of two or more mirrors and an illumination component for self-viewing the anal-genital region while seated on a toilet bowl. The preferred embodiment comprises a forward mirror and a rear mirror positioned within a toilet bowl at angles with respect to each other, to the user's eye and to the user's anal-genital region such that when the user peers between slightly spread legs into the forward mirror an upward directed image of the user's anal-genital region is visible. The device preserves the region of the toilet bowl directly below the anal-genital region free of mirrors and all supportive apparatus.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1. A device for viewing the anal-genital region of a person seated on a toilet above a toilet bowl, the device comprising:
 at least one front mirror and a rear mirror, said mirrors positioned in said toilet bowl to provide at least one line of sight from outside said toilet to said anal-genital region, wherein said mirrors are positioned without said mirrors obstructing said toilet bowl directly below the person's anal-genital region and wherein said line of sight reflects off said at least one front mirror to said rear mirror and reflects off said rear mirror upward toward said person's anal-genital region. 
 
     
     
       2. The device of  claim 1  wherein said mirrors are attached to the seat of said toilet. 
     
     
       3. The device of  claim 1  including means for adjusting said line of sight. 
     
     
       4. A device for viewing the anal-genital region of a person seated on a toilet above a toilet bowl, the device comprising:
 at least one front mirror; 
 a rear mirror; and 
 means for positioning said mirrors in said toilet to provide at least one line of sight from outside said toilet to said anal-genital region without said mirrors physically obstructing said toilet bowl directly below the person's anal-genital region such that said line of sight reflects off said at least one front mirror to said rear mirror and reflects off said rear mirror upward toward said person's anal-genital region. 
 
     
     
       5. The device of  claim 4  including means for adjusting said line of sight. 
     
     
       6. A method for viewing the anal-genital region of a person seated on a toilet above a toilet bowl, the method comprising:
 positioning at least one front mirror and one rear mirror in said toilet to provide at least one line of sight from outside said toilet to said anal-genital region, wherein said mirrors are positioned without said mirrors physically obstructing said toilet bowl directly below the person's anal-genital region such that said line of sight reflects off said at least one front mirror to said rear mirror and reflects off said rear mirror upward toward said person's anal-genital region.
